DO NOT BURN ANY OTHER FUELS. READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE YOU INSTALL AND USE YOUR NEW FIREPLACE INSERT. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND MAKE THEM AVAILABLE TO ANYONE USING OR SERVICING THE FIREPLACE. 4 Your city, town, county or province may require a building permit to install a solid fuel burning appliance. In the U.S., the National Fire Protection Association’s Code, NFPA 211, Standards for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances, or similar regulations, may apply to the installation of a solid fuel burning appliance in your area. In Canada, the guideline is established by the CSA Standard, CAN/CSA-B365-M93, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment. Always consult your local building inspector or authority having jurisdiction to determine what regulations apply in your area. Installation Safety Notices • BURN SOLID WOOD FUEL ONLY • DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS. • IF THIS ROOM HEATER IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR LOSS OF LIFE. • CONTACT THE LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA. WHEN NOT ADDRESSED IN THIS MANUAL, OR BY LOCAL CODE AUTHORITIES, INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS DEFER TO NFPA 211. • DO NOT CONNECT THIS FIREPLACE TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM . • EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION! KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT WILL CAUSE SKIN BURNS. • NEVER OPERATE THE FIREPLACE WITH A CRACKED OR BROKEN GLASS PANEL. • Install smoke detectors in the living areas and bedrooms of your home. Test them regularly and install new batteries twice annually. When installed in the same room as the stove, a smoke detector should be located as far from the stove as possible to prevent it from sounding when adding fuel to the fire. • Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the room where the stove is operating. Be aware that operation of an exhaust fan or clothes dryer can create a low pressure area and consequently promote flow reversal through the stove and chimney system. The chimney and building, however, always work together as a system - provision of outside air, directly or indirectly to an atmospherically vented appliance will not guarantee proper chimney performance. Consult your local Jøtul authorized dealer regarding specific installation/ performance issues. Preparation We strongly urge you to have your authorized Jøtul dealer install your new Jøtul C450 Kennebec Fireplace Insert. If you install the unit yourself, ask your dealer to review your installation plans. • Check with local building officials to determine what permits may be required before installation. • Notify your insurance company before installing this fireplace.

Hearth Protection Requirements The floor area in front of fireplace insert must be protected from live sparks and radiant heat. • Materials: Hearth protection must be noncombustible insulating board, having an R value of 2.92 (0.343 K-value) such as Kaowool® 2600 #15 or the equivalent mortared masonry material. See Appendix A on page 18 for information how to calculate the R-value of alternative materials. Alternate protection must composed of materials as specified by NFPA 211. • Protected Area: 18” Deep x 40” Wide A) Front - The protection must extend at least 18 inches (457 mm) forward from the glass panel in the fireplace insert doors. B) Sides - Protection must extend 20 inches (508 mm) to both sides of the centerline of the insert. • Note that the firebox may extend out forward of the fireplace face depending on where the cabinet sleeve has been set to accommodate flue connection. Always measure hearth protection from the final, installed position of the firebox and glass doors. See figures 9 and 10. 9 Chimney Connection A positive connection must be made between the fireplace insert and the chimney by one of the two following approved methods. In the U.S: See fig. 11. The insert is connected to a listed stainless steel flexible connector that extends beyond the chimney flue tile liner. Alternatively, 22 ga. blue steel or greater may be used. A sealed block-off plate must be installed at the damper area of the existing fireplace. In Canada: See fig. 11a. This fireplace insert must be installed with a continuous chimney liner of 6” (152 mm) diameter extending from the fireplace insert to the top of the chimney. The chimney liner must conform to the Class 3 requirements of CAN/ULC-S635, Standard for Lining Systems for Existing Masonry or Factory-Built Chimneys and Vents, or CAN/ULC-S640, Standard for Lining Systems for New Masonry Chimneys. Installation 1. Remove the existing damper and linkage components from the fireplace. Alternatively, you can wire the damper plate to lock it in the open position. Thoroughly clean the firebox and smokeshelf area with a wire brush. 2. If the fireplace has been modified to accommodate installation, use anchors or masonry nails to attach the metal Fireplace Conversion Notice Plate (PN 220508) to the back wall of the masonry fireplace firebox where it will be readily seen should the insert be removed. 3. Install the Flex Connection plate according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The sealing plate may require trimming to accommodate your specific fireplace damper. Do not use aluminum or galvanized steel pipe for chimney connection components - these materials are not suitable for use with solid fuel. Apply sealant around damper opening Flex Connector Pipe extends into the flue tile Flex Connector Adjustable Sealing Plate Damper Frame Locking Bracket Attach Fireplace Conversion Notice Plate to Rear Wall of Fireplace Figure 11. Positive Chimney Connection - U.S. 10 Installing the Firebox 1. If appropriate, use 3” flexible noncombustible duct to connect an outside air inlet to the air inlet collar at the back of the firebox. 2. With assistance, move the firebox into position within the fireplace and align the insert flue collar with the Adaptor Collar. 3. Attach the flue connector pipe. Use a 1/8” bit to drill attachment holes into connector pipe at the three pilot hole locations in the insert Flue Collar. Secure the flue connector pipe using three #10 x 1/2” sheet metal screws. 4. Adjust the position of the Firebox to ensure that the Surround Panel Hangers are flush with, or slightly proud of, the outside face of the fireplace. If the Hangers are set back from the face, you will be unable to engage the Surround Hanger Clips with the holes in the Hangers.

Kit Contents - 155304 Blower Optional Blower 155304 The optional two-speed blower will enhance heat circulation around the firebox and out into the room. The blower is controlled by a heat activated switch (snapstat) that will ONLY function when the control switch is in either the HI or LOW setting. After the fire has been burning for a time, the snapstat will react to the heat and activate the blower, if the switch is in the HI or LOW position. Conversely, the blower will continue to operate until the snapstat cools as the fire wanes. The blower will then shut off automatically. „ THIS BLOWER MUST BE ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES OR, IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODES, WITH THE CURRENT ANSI/ NFPA 70, NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE OR CSA C22.1-CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE. „ THIS UNIT IS SUPPLIED WITH A THREE-PRONG (GROUNDING) PLUG FOR PROTECTION AGAINST SHOCK HAZARD AND SHOULD BE PLUGGED DIRECTLY INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED THREEPRONG RECEPTACLE. DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE PLUG. For best performance, do not turn the switch on until after the fire is well-established. If the blower is not needed, place the blower control switch in the OFF position. „ ALWAYS DISCONECT THE POWER SUPPLY WHEN PERFORMING ANY SERVICE ON THE FIREPLACE INSERT. 13 Installing the Blower: 1.

Fuel This stove is designed to burn natural wood ONLY. Wood that has been air-dried for a period of 6 to 14 months will provide the cleanest most efficient heat. Frequent use of green or inadequately seasoned wood is conducive to creosote accumulation and generally poor performance. WARNING: OPERATE THIS FIREPLACE INSERT ONLY WITH THE FRONT DOORS FULLY CLOSED. PARTIALLY OPENED DOORS MAY RESULT IN OVERFIRING. ALSO, IF DOORS ARE LEFT PARTLY OPEN, GAS AND FLAME MAY BE DRAWN OUT OF THE STOVE OPENING, CREATING RISKS FROM BOTH FIRE AND SMOKE. DO NOT BURN... •Coal •Treated or painted wood •Garbage •Chemical Chimney cleaners •Cardboard •Colored paper •Solvents •Any synthetic fuel or logs CONVECTION AIR EXHAUST GASES The burning of any of these materials can result in the release of toxic fumes. NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN-UP” THE FIRE. Always keep such liquids away from the heater at all times. SECONDARY AIR PORTS PRIMARY AIR INLET WARNING NEVER ALLOW THE FIRE TO REST DIRECTLY ON THE GLASS. THE LOGS SHOULD ALWAYS BE SPACED AT LEAST ONE INCH FROM THE GLASS TO ALLOW FOR PROPER AIR FLOW WITHIN THE STOVE. COMBUSTION AIR INLET CONVECTION AIR OPTIONAL BLOWER Figure 20. Air Flow Diagram. Air Control A single lever regulates the Primary Air flow that controls the intensity of the fire and consequent heat output and burn time. This lever is located on the front of the stove directly above the ashlip. When first starting or reviving the fire, the control lever should be set at the far right position to allow the maximum amount of air into the stove. See fig. 21. After the fire is well-established, the lever should be set at position to moderate incoming air to maintain the desired long term heat output and/or burn time. In general, the more air made available to the fuel will result in the hottest fire intensity and the fastest fuel consumption. Alternatively, the less air made available to the firebox will result in low heat output and slow fuel consumption. 16 CLOSED Figure 21. Air Control Setting OPEN Starting and Maintaining a Fire Burn only solid wood directly on the bottom grate of the stove, do not elevate the fire in any way. 1. Set the Air Control Lever in the full open position. 2. Crumple several sheets of newspaper directly on the grate. 2. Place several pieces of small dry kindling (approx. 1” in diameter) on top of the newspaper, with two to three small logs (approx. 2” to 3” in diameter) on top. 3. Light the fire and close the door. Gradually build the fire by adding larger and larger logs as the fire develops a bed of coals. 4. When you have added the final logs, adjust the Air Control Lever to provide the desired fire intensity. Experiment with a variety of air control settings to determine the best one for your individual circumstances. Remember that fuel characteristics, chimney system condition, building design, and weather conditions all affect the performance of your fireplace insert. In time, you will discover how these elements combine and how you can work with them to achieve satisfactory performance. NEVER OVERFIRE THE STOVE. IF ANY PART OF THE STOVE OR CHIMNEY GLOWS, YOU ARE OVERFIRING. A HOUSE FIRE OR SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE STOVE OR CHIMNEY COULD RESULT. IF THIS CONDITION OCCURS, IMMEDIATELY CLOSE THE AIR CONTROL. Adding Fuel to the Fire When reloading the stove while a bed of hot embers still exists, follow this reloading procedure: • Always wear stove gloves when tending to the fire. • Push the Air Control Lever to the full open position (far right). • Wait a few seconds before opening the door. This allows the renewed air circulation to clear unburned gases from the firebox. • Use a stove tool or poker to distribute the hot embers equally around the firebox. • Load the fuel, usually with smaller logs first. • Close the doors and secure the latch. • Wait 5 – 10 minutes for the fire to re-establish before adjusting the Air Control Lever for the desired heat output. If a thick bed of live coals is present, you may be able to add fuel and immediately set the air control without waiting for the fire to be re-established. Creosote Formation The Jøtul C450 Kennebec is designed to burn wood cleanly and efficiently when operated as described in this manual. However, when wood is burned slowly and at low temperatures, tar and other organic vapors are produced which condense on the relatively cooler chimney flue surfaces to form creosote. Failure to keep the chimney system free of creosote build up could result in a chimney fire. The creosote that accumulates in the chimney is highly flammable and is the fuel of chimney fires. To prevent chimney fires, it is important to have the chimney flue and connector pipe inspected at least twice annually and cleaned whenever accumulation of 1/4” or more is evident. A qualified chimney sweep or other authorized service person can provide this service. It is also important to remember that chimney size, temperature and height all affect draft which in turn affects the formation of creosote. An exterior chimney, whether masonry or prefabricated steel, will be exposed to cold outside temperatures, and consequently, will be more prone to creosote accumulation than an interior flue. A chimney flue located within the home interior will benefit from the insulating characteristics of the building itself. Consequently, the flue system will be less conducive to condensation of unburned gases and minimal creosote accumulation will result. As a general rule, try to avoid burning the insert at the lowest air control settings. Although a low setting will prolong burn time, it may also result in incomplete combustion. In reducing the fire intensity, draft is weakened and the chimney flue cools. This, together with the increase in unburned gases, leads to rapid creosote accumulation. Break-in Period Ventilation It is normal for a new stove to emit odor and possibly smoke during the first few fires. This is characteristic of the burn-off of residues from the manufacturing process and the curing of painted surfaces. Open a window near the fireplace insert to provide plenty of fresh air to the room during this “seasoning” period. 17 Maintenance Ash Removal Always wear stove gloves when handling ashes. Ash removal will be required periodically depending on how frequently the stove is used. Use a steel ash shovel and metal container with a tight-fitting lid. NEVER USE A PAPER OR PLASTIC BAG AS AN ASH RECEPTACLE. The container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise dispersed, they should be kept in the closed container until all coals and cinders have thoroughly cooled. Glass Care Cleaning Occasionally it will be necessary to clean the carbon deposits and fly ash off of the glass. If deposits are allowed to remain on the glass for an extended period of time, the glass may become etched and cloudy. Creosote deposits should burn off during the next hot fire. 1. The Glass must be COMPLETELY COOL. 2. Only use a cleaner that is specifically designed for this purpose. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANING AGENTS. The use of abrasives will damage the glass, leaving a frosted surface. Crumpled newspaper is an especially good cleaning material. 3. Rinse and dry glass completely before lighting a fire. Glass Removal Always operate the doors slowly and cautiously to avoid cracking or breaking the glass. Never use the door to push wood into the firebox. If the glass becomes cracked or broken follow the replacement procedure below. IMPORTANT: REPLACE GLASS ONLY WITH JØTUL CERAMIC GLASS PART #220356 SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THE JØTUL C450 KENNEBEC FIREPLACE INSERT. DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTES. REPLACEMENT GLASS PANELS CAN BE ORDERED THROUGH YOUR JØTUL DEALER. NEVER OPERATE THE STOVE WITH A CRACKED OR BROKEN GLASS PANEL. 1. Remove the door from the stove and place on a flat surface. 2. Carefully remove all of the glass clips from the inside of the door. See fig. 22. 3. Gently remove all pieces of the glass panel and gasketing. 4. Remove all remaining debris from the glass area using a wire brush. 5. Apply a small bead of gasket/stove cement and the new gasket. Do not overlap the ends of the gasket rope. 6. Center the new glass panel over the gasket and reinstall the glass clips. 7. It may be necessary to retighten the glass clips after the stove has burned and the gasketing has been seated.

Glass Assembly Parts. 18 General Maintenance Gaskets Regular maintenance will assure proper performance and prolong the life of your Jøtul C450 Kennebec. The following procedures do not take long and are generally inexpensive. When done consistently, they will help increase the life of your fireplace insert and assure satisfactory performance. Check door and glass gaskets for seal integrity. The gaskets should be soft enough to be somewhat resilient to the touch. Over time, gaskets will compress and harden. Replace worn-out or hardened gaskets with the appropriate size material available from your local Authorized Jøtul Dealer. • Thoroughly clean the insert. Enamel surfaces should be cleaned with soap and water. • Empty firebox of all soot and ashes. Never use a household vacuum cleaner to remove ashes. Only a shop vac with a metal container is acceptable and only when you are certain the ashes are cold. To check the seal of the front doors, close and latch the doors on a dollar bill and slowly try to pull the dollar bill free. The seal is too loose if the bill can be easily removed. Adjust the door latch and test again. Gasket Replacement • Inspect the firebox using a utility light inside and out for cracks or leaks. Replace all cracked bricks and repair leaks with furnace cement. See the Parts List on page 21 to order the correct gasket material. Removing the Insert for Cleaning 2. Lay out the new gasket around the channel to determine length. Trim the gasket to leave 1” excess. 1. Lift the Ashlip from the Ashlip Extension. 2. Remove the Ashlip Extension from the firebox by grasping the sides and pulling it forward to disengage the three clips from their adjacent slots. 3. Remove the Surround Panel assembly by grasping the lower lip of the Breastplates and lifting it up and off of the firebox cabinet. There are four tabs that must be disengaged from the hangers on either side. 4. Remove the three screws that attach the flue connector to the flue collar, and disengage the it from the insert. 1. Remove the old gasket material with a pliers and thoroughly clean the channel with a wire brush. 2. Apply a small bead of furnace cement in the channel. 3. Lightly press the new gasket into the channel, being careful to avoid compressing or stretching it. Trim the gasket further as necessary to allow the tail end to slightly overlap the other end. 4. Wait ten minutes to allow the cement to set and then close and latch the doors. Reopen the doors and, using a damp cloth, wipe away any excess cement that may be squeezed out from under the gasket. 5. Pull the firebox and cabinet forward as a unit. The flue connector, liner, and chimney can now be inspected and cleaned. 6. See the Installation section of this manual for reassembly procedures. 19 Jøtul C450 Kennebec Illustrated Parts Breakdown 6 50 5 10 11 4 3 32 45 31 40 41 35 36 44 34 47 48 48 43 42 9 12 13 14 33 24 38 26 27 46 28 29 17 45 18 24 25 38 16 19 45 7 39 45 8 2 15 1 49 22 20 20 46 21 23 30 52 Jøtul C450 Kennebec Parts List No. Description 1.

No combustible material may be used to protect the floor in front of the fireplace insert. Definitions: Thermal Conductance = Btu = W C= (Hr)(ft2)(f) (m2)(k) Follow this procedure to determine if a proposed alternate floor material meets the requirements listed in this manual. Thermal Conductivity = K= Btu = (Hr)(ft2)(f) R-value = Thermal Resistance K-value = Thermal Conductivity C-value = Thermal Conductance Thermal Resistance = 1. Convert the specification to R-value; a. If R-value is given, no conversion is needed. b. If K-value is given with a required thickness (t) in inches: R = 1/K X T. c. If C-value is given: R = 1/C. 2. Determine the R-value of the proposed alternate floor protector. a. Use the formula in Step 1 to convert values not expressed as “R ”. b. For multiple layers, add R-values of each layer to determine overall R-value. 3. If the overall R-value of the system is greater than the R-value of the specified floor protector, the alternate is acceptable. Example: The specified floor protector should be 3/4” thick material with a K-factor of 0.84. The proposed alternate is 4” brick with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8 inch mineral board with a K-factor of 0.29. Step A. Use formula above to convert specifications to R-value. R = 1/K x T = 1/.84 x .75 = .893 Step B. Calculate r of proposed system. 4 ” brick of C - 1.25, therefore R brick = 1/C = 1/1.25 = 0.80 1/8 ” mineral board of K = 0.29, therefore R mineral board = 1/.29 x 0.125 = 0.431 Total R = R brick + R mineral board = 0.8 + 0.431 = 1.231 Step C. Compare proposed system R = 1.231 to specified R of 0.893. Since R is greater than required, the system is acceptable. 22 R= Btu (Hr)(ft2)(f) W = (Btu) (m2)(k) (hr)(ft)(f) = (m2)(k) W = (Btu)(inch) (hr)(ft2)(f) The Jøtul C450 Fireplace Insert requires floor protection having a minimum insulating R-value of 2.92. 23 Cat.no 137960-D Jøtul North America -October 2005 This appliance must be installed in conformance with local and national building regulations.
